As others have said, he's Mormom and BYU has had their fair share of great QBs. Robert Griffin did the same thing when he went to Baylor and that's turned out great. He went for the big fish in the small pond and hopes to become the star of the team with no competition.

“True loyalty is that quality of service that grows under adversity and expands in defeat. Any street urchin can shout applause in victory, but it takes character to stand fast in defeat. One is noise — the other, loyalty.”

I didn't want to start a thread because I don't have twitter and I think it's a little creepy anyway...

But in other news Cullen Christian is going OFF via Twitter on Gibby and the assistants leaving PITT for 'Zona.

There are other threads about it...I won't link them, because I'm partially ashamed that I even visited the message board to begin with.

I will be very surprised if Heap ends up at Washington. Keith Price had an amazing year and he is only a soph. If he transfers to UW, he would sit behind senior Price, an then compete against Nick Montana for the final year. I don't see why he would do that.

To the person who said Heaps going to BYU is like Kiel to Indiana clearly doesn't know anything about college football. BYU is in a completely different class when it comes to football than Indiana. BYU has had tons of solid QBs and is known for the passing game. Also they have a solid tradition when it comes to football with numerous major wins, bowl wins, and the 1984 NC.

Also Heaps is Mormon so it was a great fit. When he was coming to a decision it was a close race between UW and BYU, so that would make sense. He has a good relationship with the UW head coaches, Sark being a former BYU QB, so it seems logical. As has been stated though, they have Price who will be a Junior next year. I'm just surprised he didn't just redshirt next season at BYU instead of just giving up and transferring. It was a rough year with him at QB and he still needs a lot more development. He definitely has potential, but definitely struggles against better defenses as he's completely one dimensional.

You won't see him in the Big 10, look for him to transfer to a pass happy PAC12 school. UW, WSU, or Oregon St could be potentially a good fit.

There was no BCS and they played a 6-5 Michigan team in the Holiday Bowl that was clearly Bo's worst team in 20 years. Even then, Michigan played them tough losing 24-17. There were at least 5 teams in college football that year who could have waxed them in a bowl game. I was at the game and can attest that BYU was not a national championship caliber team. That being said, you are still correct about BYU's tradition of very good passing QB's relative to IU.

"You owe it to every man, woman, and child in the State of Michigan to beat the Buckeyes and silence their fans! Now go out there and make it happen!"

And Michigan was BYU's signature victory and claim to fame that year. On those rare occasions when BYU's 1984 season comes up, there's always someone to say, "yeah, but they didn't play anyone that year," with the response, "they did beat Michigan." Almost nobody remembers how mediocre Michigan was that year, though.
